Abstract excerpt
Six vegetative incompatibility (vic) loci have been identified in Cryphonectria parasitica based on barrage formation during mycelial interactions. We used hygromycin B- and benomyl-resistance as forcing markers in C. parasitica strains to test whether heteroallelism at each vic locus prevents heterokaryon formation following mycelial interactions. Paired strains that had allelic differences at any of vic1, 2, 3,...
